I'd recommend trying that method to see if it shows you all the available seats based on your AA status.

Thanks for the reply. I should have added that my AA FFN is already on the reservation. I generally (unless I forget) just remove it during the BA booking process and then add my AA FFN at AA's site. I have no status, just an AA credit card.
